Chapter 89: Bring Me
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Shao Qingyuan said to the coachman, “To the county city.”
“Why are you going to the county city? To your Yongfu Village. I came to look for you because I wanted you to bring me into the mountains to hunt. I’ll give you a hundred taels of silver. How about you bring me to hunt a roe deer?” Liu Wei was in high spirits and wanted to ask the coachman to turn around.
However, Shao Qingyuan looked at him steadily and repeated, “To the county city.” He had to listen to him if he had a favor to ask. Otherwise, he would kick him down and snatch the carriage.
Liu Wei shivered under his gaze and laughed dryly. “I’ll listen to you. 1 can see that you have something urgent to do in the county city. I’m a helpful person, so I’ll send you there. But let’s agree that when you’re done, you’ll bring me to hunt roe deer. I came to your village yesterday. I wanted to look for you, but I had something to do and returned home.”
Liu Wei knew Shao Qingyuan because he had bought Shao Qingyuan’s wild boar last time. This person was generous and gave him 50 taels of silver.
The wild boar was a big fellow. At that time, Liu Wei admired Shao Qingyuan very much. However, after he received the silver, he left when he was not paying attention. He did not even have the time to ask for the guy’s address and name.
This time, he wanted to catch a roe deer and give it to someone. It was very useful. At that time, he immediately thought of Shao Qingyuan, but there was no way to contact him.
Just as he was wondering if he should get another hunter to bring him into the mountain, he bumped into Chen Yulan.
Madam Fang and Chen Yulan went to her nephew’s wedding banquet. His nephew’s wife happened to be Liu Wei’s mother’s second-class maidservant. She had been released when she was old and had taken a fancy to the nephew.
The day after the maidservant got married, she came to the Liu family to kowtow to his mother. It could be considered a closure for the master and servant relationship. Perhaps it was also to tell the Fang family that she had been doted on and had a backer in the main family. She was not a daughter-in-law who could be bullied casually.
At that time, Chen Yulan wanted to e along and say that she wanted to see the world. She kept praising her. Coupled with the encouragement of the elders at the side, the maidservant had no choice but to bring Chen Yulan to the Liu family.
Liu Wei was talking to his mother at that time and happened to be talking about the wild boar he had bought two days ago.
Chen Yulan heard that it was a wild boar. She remembered that before she went to her grandmother’s house with her mother, she heard that the wolf cub in the village had caught a wild boar and was sending it to the county city for selling.
Unfortunately, she and her mother were in a hurry and did not have the time to look.
Now that he heard Liu Wei’s words, wasn’t Shao Qingyuan the one who matched the time, appearance, and age?
Chen Yulan was extremely excited at that time. She found an opportunity to tell Liu Wei shyly that the hunter was from her village.
When Liu Wei heard this, he immediately asked her to lead the way to her village to find Shao Qingyuan.
That was why Gu Yundong had seen Liu Wei and Madam Fang standing together.
However, just after Liu Wei arrived at Yongfu Village and watched a show yesterday, before he could find Shao Qingyuan, a servant came looking for him. He said that there was an urgent matter at home and asked him to hurry back.
Liu Wei could only regretfully say that he would e another day. Unexpectedly, he met Shao Qingyuan on the way.
That was great. This way, he would have a roe deer.
Liu Wei felt that Shao Qingyuan was capable. He knew that Shao Qingyuan had sold more than one wild boar.
When Liu Wei thought about this, he felt quite happy. Even the heavens were helping him. He confirmed again, “When you’re done with the matters in the county, you can bring me into the mountains, right? I have to go personally. You will bring me, right?”
Shao Qingyuan frowned. This person was too annoying.
However, he suddenly thought of something.. He turned his head and asked him, “Do you know Peng Zhongfei?”
